This seminar teaches the “grammar” of graphics that underlies the ggplot2 package, allowing the user to build eye-catching, publication-quality graphics layer-by-layer. We cover the basic elements of the grammar of graphics, including aesthetics, geoms, scales, and themes, and we will show you how easy ggplot2 makes it to integrate these elements to make informative and beautiful graphics. The seminar is meant to be interactive with attendees participating in the coding, so some very basic R coding knowledge is helpful but not required.
